Redick M. Wylie, Bloomington, to Andrew Wylie, Jr.

Bloomington, Dec. 1st, 1862, Dear Brother, Enclosed send you a check for $100, with which please credit my note. Expect I will be able to send you the most of the balance by 1st of Jan next if I am not disappointed in getting money which is due me by that time. We have not received any money from Prof Wylie for some time, not since I sent you the $400 check. He has paid up the first two notes & $200 on the last, consequently I owe you something on what he has already paid in, which I intend to pay the next money he pays in. Do not know when it will come. Will also enclose you $5.00 that you may buy me some U. S. postage currency if you can get it without troubling yourself. If it is not convenient for you to get it you may credit my note with that amount also. Change is very scarce, silver is not to be had. Elizabeth and Molly still have the ague. The Dr has succeeded in breaking the chills on them two or three times, but still they return. All the rest of the friends & relatives are well. Brigadier General Gormon was here a few days
